Bike— Part 1 채점 보고서

제안: Give a direct topic sentence that answers the question fully, then add one or two specific supporting details using linking words. Mention when you had the bike, how you used it, and a short memory or feeling to make the response natural and informative. Keep it under five sentences.

예시: Yes, I did have a bike when I was a child. I got it when I was about eight years old, and I rode it almost every day to visit friends and explore my neighborhood. Because I practiced a lot, I became confident riding on busy streets, which made those childhood summers very memorable.

제안: Answer the question directly and clearly (yes/no or degree), then explain with specific reasons and examples using linking words. Avoid ambiguous or irrelevant phrases like “not a problem.” Mention factors such as infrastructure, culture, or weather to support your view. Use 2–4 sentences maximum.

예시: I don't think bikes are very popular in my country. Although some people cycle for leisure, most prefer cars because the roads are busy and there are few dedicated bike lanes. For instance, I rarely see commuters cycling to work except in parks or on weekends.

× Yes, I like bikes.

✓ Yes, I liked bikes.

The question asks about the past (Did you have a bike when you were a child?), so the student's reply should use past tense. 'Like' is present tense; 'liked' is past tense and matches the time frame. Suggestion: use past simple for habits or preferences in the past (I liked bikes when I was a child).

× No, actually it is not a problem in my country.

✓ No, actually it is not common in my country.

The examiner asked about whether bikes are popular. The student's original sentence uses 'a problem', which is semantically odd and may reflect an article or word choice error. The verb 'is' is present tense and fine because the question is about current popularity, but the noun phrase is wrong. Replace 'a problem' with 'common' or 'popular'. Suggestion: use 'common' or 'popular' to describe prevalence (Bikes are not common in my country).
